UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT 1 2 FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA In re Case No.: 3 R.S. No.: 4 Chapter 13 5 Order Setting Telephonic Hearing For Relief From Stay 6 7 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that a preliminary hearing will be held telephonically on 8 ___________________ at _____ _.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, to consider the attached 9 motion for relief from stay. This Order modifies Bankruptcy Local Rule 4001-1 by requiring telephonic, rather 10 than personal appearances, by the parties on a motion for relief from stay. The moving party shall complete the 11 information in this Order, serve a copy of this Order with the moving papers, and file all pleadings as well as 12 proof of service, at least fifteen days prior to the noticed hearing date. 13 Moving party shall pay the cost of the telephone conference with Court Conference (1-866-582-6878). 14 Court Conference will place telephone calls to __________________________________ , counsel for moving 15 party, at __________________ and to _________________________________, counsel for the debtor, at 16 _________________. (Use an office telephone number for counsel or a home telephone number for a party.) 17 If incorrect, debtor’s counsel or the debtor, if self-represented, shall provide the correct number or an alternate 18 number to Court Conference no later than 24 hours in advance of the hearing. At any continued hearing the 19 parties are required to notify Court Conference no less than 24 hours in advance of any change in the telephone 20 number. If the parties seek a continuance of the telephonic hearing, notice must be given to the calendar secretary 21 no later than 48 hours prior to the scheduled hearing. Any questions regarding procedures for the telephonic 22 hearing may be directed to Court Conference at 1-800-538-7633. 23 The parties shall, in good faith, confer before the hearing regarding the issues raised by the motion and 24 resolution of the motion. If debtor’s counsel or the debtor does not appear telephonically, the Court may presume 25 there is no opposition to the motion. If either counsel or the parties abuse the process for telephonic hearings, 26 the Court may order sanctions, which may include removing the matter from the calendar, granting relief from 27 the automatic stay, or awarding monetary sanctions, as appears just under the circumstances. 28 /s/ MARILYN MORGAN UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY JUDGE Rev. 06/10/2008 American LegalNet, Inc. www.FormsWorkflow.com
